The other day I saw a thread here about video player and many of the comments were praising the shit of mpv.Since in my anine library i have videos that range the 480p-1080p and with the promises that can enhance their quality with mpv i decided to downloadThe thing is that i created the fucking mpv.conf file with the video settings inside and ithey dont have effect, i put that file on the appdata folder on the mpv_config folder and nothing worked.I followed all the instructions, download the portable, extract, install.bat... and nothingAnd in internet cant find any info, seems that its a niche play after allShould i stick on vlc?vo=gpu-nextprofile=gpu-hqhwdec=auto-safescale=spline36cscale=spline36dscale=mitchelldeband=yesdeband-grain=4saturation=1.15Thats what i paste on the mpv.conf file
Potplayer is all you need.
>doing all this autistic shit when MPC just plays files as is
If you installed mpv as portable then the mpv.conf needs to be in the install folder.
>>282181854kek, imagine
>>282181854should i drop it in the extracted folder?
>>282181797no you should stick with mpv, it's made by autistic transgenders who are obsessed with video transcoding (and subtitles). vlc can't compete. literally just look at all the anime girl pfps on the git repo. says it all really.
>>282181812Is potplayer better than mpv? Chatgpt told me that btw
>>282181986It just werks. Even heavy films run perfectly on my crappy laptop. I’ve never once had problems with it processing files or throwing errors in years.
>>282181998At this point i gonna try it just because mpv simply doesnt work
>>282181797>saturation=1.15Be glad that it didn't work.
>>282181797>>282181812>>282181825Irfanview, it just animes... oh wait, i removed the codec pak for that because it was buggy. MPCHC is fine.just play the animes with bilinear filter and alt vsync for best compat and smoothness. grain is gay.
>>282181881Yes. That's what the install folder is.
vlc still works for me
>>282181812I'll second that potplayer recommendation, no issues and when everyone else is talking about the subs having signs being out of sync it looks perfect.
>>282181797Go to /g/If mpv setup is really difficult, MPV.com is a more friendly version, and Seed of Might has a prebuilt one that just werks.
>>282181797If you can't install mpv and write a config file, that's a skill issue.
What's a good player that can do this as well?I don't hate vlc but the playback bar has shitty aim.
>>282182195ugh
>>282181797>spline36>mitchell
>>282182195I think this is the right option for pot player, there is also a ftp/http option though.
What do you want to enhance? It's not pike your 480p anime will suddenly become 1080p
>>282182237guess I'll try
>>282181797>i have videos that range the 480p-1080p and with the promises that can enhance their qualityBy upscaling it or what? Don't bother. Install K-Lite Codec Pack with default config, that's everything you'll ever need in terms of quality.
>>282182274>Install K-Lite Codec Pack with default config, that's everything you'll ever need in terms of quality.That will do about the same, but with more work.
>>282181797>Can't even select subtitlesMinimalism is a mental illness.
imagine not being able to setup a fucking media player
>>282181986It certainly is easier to use. I love the webdav integration.
>>282182310More work how? Installing k-lite codec pack takes 1 minute tops so it's far less time consuming than his whack a mole problems with mpv.
>>282182310>more workHow?? It's literally run the installer and forget.
>>282182347MPV doesn't need a setup faggot
>>282182244Its only a show that is a dvdrip.
>>282182384Then why go through all that pain? Could have just used mpv out of the box.
>>282182361>>282182371The mpv portable version only needs to be unzipped. No installation needed. It's simpler. Also, codec packs always cause problems because they're system-wide plugins.
>mpv
>>282182310On vlc i use denoise, deband and some other filters, and im quite glad with what vlc offers but apparently mpv can do that and has better upscalers (source the internet), that why i want to try it
>>282182410Ye i did that and the app works, but the mpv.conf settings doesnt work
>>282182409Its my favorite show also
>>282182410>codec packs always cause problems because they're system-wide plugins.there's why you use VLC which don't need codecs installed!>>282182423>CPsmells like a gamergate moment.
>>282182456And what about it?
Why is it so easy to bait autists into giving you free tech support
This is the lowest IQ thread I've seen on /a/>I nstalled the Firefox and want change theme but where is theme folder local or roaming or ??? I think my Firefox is broken.
>>282182566i didn't . use VLC
>>282182566Easy as shit stuff isn't tech support saar
>>282181797You see, when you installed MPC it came with a virus called System32 that is preventing you from using any other video player. Open C:/Windows/ and I bet it's there. If you delete the folder it should let you use mpv.conf
>>282182195>>282182202anon, mpv can do literally everything
>>282182569I tried many players in the past, mpc+madvr for example. Mpv is just not very intuitive
>>282182612It doesn't have to be intuitive.Manuals exist for a reason.
>>282182607If I have to remember a bunch of commands I'm dropping it.
>>282182612>Mpv is just not very intuitiveIt doesn't aim to be. I don't know why anons here want to "sell" it to the wrong target audience. It's like telling a phone poster that downloading is better than streaming.
>>282182618I followed the manual and didnt work, thats why the thread.Also the manual is too focus in ui costumization and key bindi gs that setting up the video xp
Nevermind, I fixed it anons. My computer wasn't plugged in.
>>282182654
>>282181916this desu, even the most autistic of linux distributions ships with vlc out of the box.
>>282182612It supporting Windows at all is a kludge, just like Windows is as an operating system. It works perfectly exactly as expected on its native Linux platform, just like most things run better on Linux when they're not commercialshit slapped together with string and sellotape that won't let you look at the source code out of shame
>>282182343But you can? That's one of the few things that are clickable in the UI even
>tinkertranny shit
>>282182195Do what?
>>282182804They mostly come with the video player of the DE's application suite though, which is going to just be a frontend for mplayer anyway
I’ve been using mov for years and would never even consider changing to anything else >it’s too hard >it’s not intuitive If a retard like me could learn where to drop a plugin for webm output, anyone can figure it out
>>282182956Mpv
>>282182628>wah, don't make me learn how to use another operating system! I lost all my neuroplasticity gooning to Madobe Nanami!
>>282182343Open the video file and press 'J' on your keyboard bakaIf the subtitles are in a separate .srt file you can drag the file onto the open mpv window playing your video file and they'll load in.
Has anyone actually bought codecs from Microsoft's Windows store so they could play anime on the windows media player?
my mpc-hc just worksi've never felt any reason to sidegrade to mpv. if anything the Cartel shilling it made me suspect it's shittier, since the Cartel are a bunch of trolls and CrunchyRoll employees.
>>282181797Told you to just you MPC-HC, retard
>>282183041Too little benefit for now
>>282183336*use
>>282181797I use MPV to read manga, but how do I zoom in?
>>282183129There’s an icon for subtitle selection in the video scroll
>>282182804Vlc x mpv fanfic where?
>>282183623Pressing a button on your keyboard is easier than clicking the icon
>>282183764Not when I'm leaning on my chair like a monkey
>>282181797>tinkering with the encodingWhy? My mpv.conf only has a few settings to stop it from closing and setting the main language to jap and it works just fine.
>>282182429only if you use meme shadersvlc supports lanczos scaling which is about as good as it gets with traditional scaling algorithms, it's also the default in mpvspline36 is almost the exact same as lanczos and indistinguishable from it in practice, but it makes autists feel special for some reasonewa_lanczosharp is pretty much a meme, it's almost never appreciably better than lanczos (or spline36) and way more computationally expensive
>>282181797watch online on crunchyroll like a normal human being
>>282183041Don't shit on best OS girl please.>>282182410>Also, codec packs always cause problems because they're system-wide plugins.This. Having K-Lite Codec Pack installed fucked with the in-game videos in Trails in the Sky. That was the main reason I stopped using it.
>Most intelligent /a/ poster

>>282184250>Having K-Lite Codec Pack installed fucked with the in-game videos in Trails in the Sky.That's an interesting discovery.

>>282182423what the fuck mpv is based?
>>282184291that happened with any codec pack. the cccp also fucked with trails in the skythe video file was a .ogg and it tried to open it in your media player instead of in the game

>>282186576Nobody reads that, do you read the terms of service agreements?
>>282186103pretty much, like something was introducing noise. i remember fixing it when i first tried potplayer out, then i reinstalled windows on a new build without backing up my config, then couldn't figure out what the cause was after that
I still use MPC
>>282186573>Nothing.How do I learn the way of Nothing?
>>282183253>won't use software because people talk about itHey mpc-hc is fucking awesome.Now you can't use it because I shilled it. haha
>>282186345You don't really need to tinker with mpv beyond setting it to not close when the video ends and setting a screenshot folder.You just figure things you want to do by yourself though. For instance, I wanted to decrease the size of the video inside the window because when I'm eating, my face is closer to the monitor. Eventually I found out I could add the following shortcuts to input.conf:Alt+- add video-zoom -0.1Alt+= add video-zoom 0.1Do I need it? No. But it's neat to have it and I just needed to Google for a solution. Nowadays you can also use an AI to spoonfeed you quicker.
>>282181797>enhance their qualityThe fuck you on about? The real world isn’t some tv show or movie that has bullshit enhance video/image magic.Who ever told you any media player can do that is a faggot retard, or maybe you are a retard and didn’t understand what they were trying to explain.

I wasn't even going to respond to this retarded thread because you should just be using MPC-HC if you're not braindead, but>>282184250>Having K-Lite Codec Pack installed fucked with the in-game videos in Trails in the Sky.False. I've played all the way through Trails in the Sky with K-Lite Codec Pack installed and never had any problems. Same with CCCP and my previous computer. Were you using a cracked copy of Trails or something? In any case, it's your own fault, not the codec's.
